The parish vacancy in Bishopstoke (Whalesmead) was caused by the resignation of Independent, Louise Parker-Jones, presumably to focus on her work as a county and borough councillor. She is leader of the main opposition group on Eastleigh Borough Council. So this is a Lib Dem gain.

There is a Conservative defence tonight in the St. Paul's ward of Salisbury City, following the sad death of Mary Webb (Con).
The city council elections on 6 May 2021 were fought on new ward boundaries and resulted in a hung council -
Con 11, Lib Dem 6, Lab 6, Independent 1
The by-election on 14 July 2022 in Harnham West ward, caused by the resignation of Paul Cunningham (Con), was held by Eleanor Wills (Con) - so the council composition is unchanged.
St. Paul's ward (previous boundaries)
4 June 2009 - Independent 467, Con 426, Lib Dem 408/397/335, Lab 398/375/265, BNP 89 - 1 Ind, 1 Con and 1 Lib Dem elected
3 May 2013 - Con 418/376, Independent 395, Lab 355/332/286, Green Party 335, Lib Dem 233/143 - 2 Con and 1 Ind elected
5 May 2017 - Con 652/542/488, Lab 385/326, Lib Dem 366/263/218, Green Party 330, Independent 326 - 3 Con elected
St. Paul's ward (current boundaries)
6 May 2021 - Lib Dem 1111/577/511, Con 559/417/362, Green Party 404/372/236, Lab 314, No Description 154 - 2 Lib Dem and 1 Con elected

December 1st will see a by election for Sherborne Town Council West Ward. There will also be another attempt to find a candidate for Winterborne St Martin Parish Council. Sherborne is in fact for two seats. These seem to both be Lib dem defences There are three candidates, so Lib Dems are guarenteed one. The ward returned four Lib Dems, 1 Tory, 1 Independent in 2019: Richard Crabb Lib Dem Chris Kippax Lib Dem Taff Martin Independent Winterborne St Martin Parish Council - there are once again no nominations. |

So Albrighton is filled at the 4th attempt!
Bridgnorth Morfe is actually a gain from Lab (Alexa Buffey), although the ward was uncontested in 2021.

What is happening at Bishopstoke Parish Council in Eastleigh, Hampshire? At the last parish election on 6 May 2021, the Independent - Bishopstoke and Fair Oak Group fielded 8 candidates across the 5 parish wards. The total number of seats is 15, but all their candidates were elected and they took overall control, including the Chair and Vice Chair of the council. Now, two of their number have resigned, Lou Parker-Jones in Whalesmead ward and Sue Lynch in Itchen ward. In both by-elections, Whalesmead today and Itchen on 15 December, Lib Dem candidates have been returned unopposed. So the make-up of the council now is Bishopstoke and Fair Oak Group 6, Lib Dem 5, Lab 1, Hampshire Independents 1, Independent 1, Co-opted 1 - and the Bishopstoke and Fair Oak Group have lost overall control. Here is their report from 2021 bishopstokeindependents.org/bishopstoke-parish-council-update/ |

Sherborne Town (West ward) - 6 seats
3 May 2007 - 5 Con and 1 Lab unopposed
5 May 2011 - Con 951/932/930/892/882/803, Lab 564 - 6 Con elected
7 May 2015 - Lib Dem *1086/1036, Con 954/927/905/836/812, Non Political 708 - 2 Lib Dem and 4 Con elected
*the Declaration of Result of Poll reports this vote as 7086
2 May 2019 - Lib Dem 870/791/709/601, Independent 567, Con 539/529/489/456 - 4 Lib Dem, 1 Independent and 1 Con elected
Sherborne Town Council (12 seats) - political composition following elections
3 May 2007 - 9 Con, 2 Independent, 1 Lab
5 May 2011 - 10 Con, 2 Independent
7 May 2015 - 7 Con, 3 Lib Dem, 1 Independent, 1 No Description
2 May 2019 - 6 Lib Dem, 4 Con, 1 Independent, 1 Non-Political
Following the resignation of James Carey (Con) in East ward, on 19 October 2020 the town council co-opted Suresh Jeganathan (Lib Dem) by 7 votes to 4 - which gave the Lib Dems overall control of the town council
The Lib Dems held the two seats on 1 December 2022, following the resignations of Anne Hall (Lib Dem) and Matt Hall (Lib Dem).
So the town council composition is now 7 Lib Dem, 3 Con, 1 Independent, 1 Non-Political
